      Verdict

      Not too many are likely to get into this and we take Amnesty to be just too good for Mac Federal, Dance With Wolves and Shaman. The selection will appreciate any weekend rains that fall and handles this track well. He is also fit from the flat and with Gary Moore having winners at present he is taken to add to the tally. Mac Federal won't be far away judged on his two most recent efforts both here and at Ludlow, although he to would prefer some cut, while Dance With Wolves has lumps to find with the selection on their recent running here, and Shaman may make the frame, but he looks the stable's second string to our choice Amnesty.
